Monday, December 5th, finds the Indiana Pacers playing the Golden State Warriors for the first of two scheduled matches this season. Indiana will host the second game on December 14th.
Indiana is completing a back-to-back set losing 100-116 to the Blazers on Sunday while the Warriors played Saturday defeating the Rockets 120-101.
Last season, the squads split the season series each winning on the opponent’s court. The Pacers hold the all-time record having bested the Warriors in 50 of their 96 matches.
Indiana Pacers
This is the sixth of seven games on the trip for the Pacers who have a single victory (Lakers) to show through five games. They’ve lost to the Clippers, Kings, Jazz, and Blazers.
The Pacers average 115.8 points per game ranked eighth overall. Indy shoots 44.9% percent from the field and 35.7% from the perimeter ranking 27th and 13th respectively.
Defensively, Indy allows opponents to score 116.5 points per game (26th) while limiting them to 46.9% from the field (15th), and 36.9% from deep (23rd).
Tyrese Haliburton (groin) was downgraded to out Sunday and joined by TJ McConnell (illness) and since they just finished their match the Monday report hasn’t been submitted. Presumably, these two will be listed as questionable again though.
Daniel Theis (knee) and Chris Duarte (ankle) are both out indefinitely.
Golden State Warriors
If the Dubs could play all their games at the Chase Center they’d sit atop the league (11-1) so they’ll have to figure out how to get their game to travel.
On Saturday, the team rested Klay Thompson and it didn’t matter as Steph Curry (30 points, 10 assists, 8 triples) and Andrew Wiggins (36 points, 8 of 10 from deep) 3-point stroke stayed hot as they combined for 66 of the Warriors 120 points.
The Dubs moved up to third overall for scoring averaging 117.7 points per game. They shoot 48.4% from the field and 38.2% from deep, ranking sixth and fifth respectively.
The defense is making strides. Each time I prep another preview they’ve moved up the ladder across the board and while they still rank in 24th for opponent scoring (116.3) that’s a marked improvement from 30th!
Per the above, it’s most noticeable in opponent proficiency with foes shooting 45.9% from the field and 34.3% from deep ranking eighth and seventh respectively.
Klay Thompson sat for rest Saturday so is listed as probable for Monday while Jordan Poole (ankle) is questionable and Andrew Wiggins might sit for rest. Andre Iguodala (hip) is out indefinitely.

Free Indiana Pacers vs. Golden State Warriors NBA Prediction:
Not knowing Haliburton’s status it’s hard to pick the Pacers even with the healthy point spread. The Dubs are shooting lights out especially at home, but I wonder if Steve Kerr will give anyone else besides Wiggins the night off. If he does that could impact the win margin.
But not having that information I’ll take the Warriors to win and cover.
